Product Information

Full details

The Red Gorilla Telescopic Handle is a lightweight aluminium broom handle designed for users seeking adjustable reach and comfort during cleaning tasks. Its primary benefit is the ability to extend from 83cm to 140cm, reducing physical strain. A key caveat is that its durability may not match standard or small fixed-length handles, making it best suited for convenience and versatility rather than heavy-duty, constant use. This handle offers a flexible cleaning solution compatible with all Gorilla Broom heads.

FAQs

What is the minimum and maximum length of the handle?

The Red Gorilla Telescopic Handle extends smoothly from a minimum length of 83cm to a maximum length of 140cm.

Is this handle suitable for very heavy-duty cleaning?

While durable for general use, this telescopic handle is not as robust as standard or small fixed-length handles. It is best suited for convenience and versatility. For heavy-duty tasks, we recommend considering Red Gorilla's Standard or Small Broom Handles.

What broom heads is this handle compatible with?

It is compatible with all Red Gorilla Broom heads that feature a universal screw fit, including the Corn Broom and Poly Yard Broom.

How do I adjust the handle length?

Gently pull the telescopic sections apart to extend the handle to your desired length. The sections will lock into place. To retract, ensure the locking mechanism is disengaged and slide the sections back together.

What is the handle made of?

The handle is constructed from lightweight yet durable aluminium.

Can I use this handle for reaching high places like ceilings?

Yes, the adjustable length up to 140cm makes it suitable for reaching higher areas, reducing the need for ladders or excessive stretching.

Troubleshooting

Handle sections are difficult to extend or retract

Ensure the telescopic sections are clean and free from debris. Wipe them down with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. If resistance persists, check for any obstructions or minor dents on the shaft. Avoid forcing the sections, as this could cause damage.

Broom head does not attach securely

Verify that both the handle's screw thread and the broom head's fitting are clean and undamaged. Ensure you are using a compatible Gorilla Broom head. Twist firmly to ensure a secure connection.

Handle feels unstable at full extension

Ensure the telescopic sections are fully locked into position. This handle is designed for convenience and versatility; for extremely heavy-duty tasks or prolonged high-stress use, consider a fixed-length handle which may offer greater rigidity.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Adjustable length for enhanced comfort and reach.
  • Lightweight yet durable aluminium construction.
  • Universal fitting for compatibility with various broom heads.
  • Reduces strain on the user's body during cleaning.
  • Suitable for a wide range of cleaning tasks.

Cons

  • May be less durable than fixed-length handles for very demanding tasks.
  • Telescopic mechanism might require occasional cleaning to ensure smooth operation.
  • Not recommended for heavy-duty, industrial-level cleaning where maximum robustness is essential.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To set up your Red Gorilla Telescopic Handle, simply attach your desired Gorilla Broom head to the end of the handle. The universal screw fit allows for a secure connection by twisting the head onto the handle's threaded end. Extend the handle to your preferred length by gently pulling the telescopic sections apart until they lock into place at the desired height. To retract, unlock the mechanism (if applicable, typically by twisting or pressing a release) and slide the sections back together.

Compatibility: This telescopic handle is designed with a universal screw fit, making it compatible with all Red Gorilla Broom heads, including but not limited to the Corn Broom and Poly Yard Broom. Ensure the broom head you wish to use has a compatible screw thread.

Care: To maintain optimal performance, clean the telescopic sections periodically. Wipe down the aluminium shaft with a damp cloth and mild detergent if necessary. Ensure the sections are dry before storing to prevent corrosion. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish. Store the handle in a dry place, preferably indoors, to protect it from the elements.
